CRL Style Guide

Prepare Photos if Possible

File names should be in the format of XX__costume_description.jpg. For example, TK_esb_helmet.jpg. The name doesn't matter much, but you need to be able to reference them easily.

The photos should be clear and well lit, and be on a photoshopped white background. If you cannot do this yourself, please contact the LMO team for assistance. Michael can be contacted via sld@ionicdesign.com.

If you do not have photos for the costume, please continue anyway, leaving the photo names blank for now.

If you've forgotten the name of your photos, you can find them in the list of uploaded files. Files in the wiki are referenced by File:imagename, for example File:TK_esb_armordetail.jpeg.

Enhanced costuming levels

This one varies from detachment to detachment and may require Brian Anderson's assistance.

Some detachments define additional levels above 501st approval. This template would describe those levels, if applicable. As such, one template must be created for each detachment, describing their unique levels. Skip this one if you don't already know what template to use, and contact Brian.
